Risk Assessment The experiment is aimed at determining the effects of exercise intensity and type on recovery rates. This experiment is low risk. However, the following precautions should be taken to prevent accidents:
All exercise participants must wear appropriate sportswear
Other group members must wear lab coats
Persons with respiratory and cardiovascular conditions should NOT take the exercises
Objectives
Review the structures of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems
Obtain graphical representations of changes in heart rate,
temperature and air flow during and after exercise
Determine the impact of exercise on heart rate, temperature and air flow
Determine the working relationship between the cardiovascular and respiratory systems
Materials and Equipments/ Requirements Air flow Meter Heart rate monitor Thermometer Stop watch timer
